A lady with blond hair is rarely ignored by men, especially if her hairstyle, in addition to a beautiful shade, has a healthy sheen of density. Natural blond is rare, but a huge number of women dye their hair honey, strawberry, ash shades, wanting to join the ranks of blondes.

For a long time, mankind knew two tones of "blond" - poisonous yellow and platinum. Now a variety of dyes and dyeing techniques allow you to combine from 2 to 7 shades on one hairstyle and make individual toning of strands. How to choose the right shade to become blonde?

Color features

No other shade will make an image as fragile and attractive as a blond. However, if a woman is not the owner of baked milk-colored strands by nature, then they will have to be dyed. This has its advantages and disadvantages.

There are quite a few advantages.

  • Visual rejuvenation. Light shades of hair distract attention from skin imperfections on the face.
  • There are a lot of color optionsas well as manufacturers. The probability that you will not find your own shade is zero.
  • Light shades they hide gray hair much more effectively than dark and reddish tones of paint.
  • You don't have to radically lighten your hairif there is no certainty that it will suit the person. You can start with strands near the face, "ombre" - stretch marks from dark to light, or lighten a couple of tones.
  • Depending on the color type and skin tone you can dye the strands both in cold shades and in warm ones.The recently introduced "strawberry", "caramel" and "lilac" tones of the blonde will make the look more daring.
  • Using multiple shades of blond in one haircut visually increases the volume, and the head of hair looks thicker and more luxuriant.

Coloring is not complete without drawbacks. The most basic is the negative effect of coloring lightening substances on the hair and its structure. Ammonia-containing brighteners harm curls, making them colorless and dry, and as a result, brittle and dull. If you constantly lighten your hair using ammonia-containing dyes, your hair will suffer a lot and will look like a washcloth.

Warm and cold shades

Each cosmetic company that produces hair dyes has its own name for the tones. The general division is as follows: warm and cold scales. How to understand which palette the selected shade belongs to? There is a hint: colors belonging to the warm range are most often indicated by the words: honey, strawberry or sandy blonde, as well as all shades of gold. As for cold tones, these are, as a rule, platinum, silver, ash, beige and similar names.

Shades of both scales can both beautify a lady and ruin her appearance.if they are not in harmony with the skin, eyes and the chosen image. Therefore, before you start dyeing your hair, you can "try on" the tone you like on a computer program or in an application on your phone, and see if it fits. You can also consult with a color typing specialist or your master colorist to find the right shade.

What do dark tones look like?

Dark blondes are not absurd at all, but a category of young ladies with blond hair of slightly more saturated shades. For example, light brown is nothing more than a dark blonde. It can be either cold or warm, but the former is still more common. Light brown is ideal for understanding whether you want to be blonde and lighten your hair further, or if you will like brighter colors.

Warm dark blondes include ladies who dye their hair honey tones. As a rule, such strands are on the border with red ones, but have a less saturated color. The same statement is true for sandy blondes, often at the roots their curls are tinted more densely and differ in color from the ends.

Californian dyeing with the effect of sunburned hair is extremely popular precisely for its naturalness. Despite the fact that the roots are dark with this dyeing (due to this, the hair does not look "pure" blond), care for tinted strands should be more careful than for monochromatic bleached curls. Growing back, the roots lose their neat transition, "stretch" from darker to light, and the Californian coloring turns into untidy dyed hair.

A dark blonde with a light coffee shade is one of the most natural colors of the palette. It can be either warm - with a “cappuccino” tone and even chocolate, or cold light brown. Another way of coloring is "dirty" blond. Despite such an unattractive name, in essence it is ashy or ash-blond hair, complemented by lighter strands. The effect of burnt-out curls looks great both on a short haircut, and on a semi-long or long one.

Choosing a shade to match your skin tone

When choosing a color for your curls, you need to be guided not only by desire, but also by your own color type. Depending on whether "winter" is a woman or "spring", you should dye your hair in certain tones. So, "autumn" with a warm skin tone and freckles are suitable shades of bronze and copper, it is undesirable to completely lighten the hair. Honey strands will also look good, and any of the subspecies of "honey". It can be honey-blond, honey-chestnut or even honey-red curls.

No less interesting are the tones of the so-called Venetian blonde, which have a reddish undertone. Such colors are also called Titian colors, since it was Titian who used a similar paint in his paintings. For beauties with porcelain skin, cool tones are suitable: platinum or silver. Ash shades will look no less impressive on them, highlighting the skin.

Platinum blond is allowed to be worn only by fair-skinned young ladies with the correct facial features. And it is better if their original hair color is not darker than light brown. Platinum is one of the most difficult shades to obtain and maintain, and the darker hair is supposed to be dyed, the less predictable the result. Platinum tone does not imply even a hint of yellowness, so red-haired girls or brunettes are better off choosing a different color.

As for the pearl blond that is so fashionable nowadays, it can be made both warm and cold by choosing the appropriate subtone: ash or gold. The peculiarity of pearl toning is that it softens facial features, highlighting them, and has a visual rejuvenating effect.

Very similar in effect to a pearl pearl blond. He just visually "throws off" for several years, slightly "photoshopped" the skin due to a kind of glow that appears in hair tinted in this way. Mother-of-pearl does not contain any yellow pigment at all, looks very noble and, importantly, creates the illusion of hair volume and considerable thickness.

Beige blond is ideal for girls with a "summer" color type, it softens the image and makes it sophisticated and refined. However, if you choose beige, you should be prepared for a constant fight against yellowness, which often strives to show through on tinted strands. This is not only a systematic coloring, but also a whole system of hair care, consisting of the use of a special anti-yellow shampoo, a balm, a mask and a corresponding serum. As in any other case, it is better to use a series to leave from one manufacturer.

Sandy curls just have a yellow tint, while they can vary both in a cold range and in a warm one. It depends on which strand is larger - ash or golden. This makes the sandy blond universal, suitable for representatives of all color types, without exception. However, having dyed your hair in "sand", you should not get carried away with bright makeup, otherwise there is a risk of falling into vulgarity.

Blond strands of wheat color are the subject of hunting for many fashionistas., and the one who calls this tone simple is wrong. There is nothing simple about it, on the contrary, wheat curls look truly natural and from this it is much more valuable, especially on young ladies with fair skin and gray, blue or gray-blue eyes.

Strawberry blondes are a relatively new word in hair coloring and toning, however, in a short period of time, “strawberries” have become wildly popular among girls striving to be “in trend” and “in style”. As the name suggests, strawberry blonde has a pinkish undertone (and in some cases, frankly pink). Business ladies who strive for rigor in everything will hardly like such a bold coloring, but young experimenters who love everything fashionable and non-trivial will be delighted. As for the color type, then most of all "strawberry" will suit "spring".

But the representatives of cold color types ("summer" and "winter") should not be upset: they can also wear blond with a pink undertone. However, it will no longer be "strawberry", but rose quartz on an ash background. It looks no less dignified and impressive. Many Hollywood stars have already appreciated it. Rose quartz is especially suitable for girls with dark eyes and fair skin.

How to match your eye color?

Having decided on the shade of blonde that will favorably shade the skin, you should also think about how it is in harmony with the color of the eyes, making them brighter and more noticeable.Brown-eyed girls suit both dark blonde shades and honey, golden or beige. Any of them will make your eye color deeper and richer.

Light-eyed ladies with the appropriate skin tone will go to platinum. Caramel blonde can also make your eyes shine. Venetian and honey-red shades are perfect for green-eyed enchantresses.

However, pearl or pearl blond will make them real angels, highlighting the brightness of the emerald eyes. Strawberry blond is also suitable for green eyes, however, here you should be careful with the saturation of pink.

When choosing a shade, it is imperative to take into account not only the color of the skin, eyes, but also the image itself. - and the one that is, and the one that you want to get. Are you planning to paint brightly or, on the contrary, to maintain the "nature" image? Want to cut or grow your hair? Is the girl ready to spend time (and money) on the constant care of the dyed strands? How will she dress? Before you sit in a chair to a hair dyeing master, you need to answer yourself these questions in order to imagine the result that awaits after visiting a beauty salon.
